On master ninja she is the toughest boss to beat... I thought the ones towards the end were difficult to beat but they are not that hard compared to her.

If you choose to actually fight her on master level mode than yeah I would say so but there's always the easy way and even easier way to beat her, the eclipse scythe UT and during the 2nd fight, using fiend Genshin body so she can't lay a hit on you. On co-op mode yeah the hardest.

For me I'm going with Mike Tyson, he will eat your children and your controller. Also honorable mention to the Ruby Weapon in FFVII, tons of preparing and only having one character to fight him with to drain 1,000,000 HP.

Yeah Master Ninja mode, the 1st time you meet her... that 2nd fight with the invisible wall

On Resident Evil 5, on Professional. Where you are in the humvee and you have to kill, that thing. You make 1 wrong move you are dead. You don't shoot the zombies that can somehow shoot arrows at you, you die after 4 hits. First time I beat Professional I died 54 times on that level. 2nd time through I had an idea died only 24 times. And every single one of those deaths occured on the boss fight, none in the parts leading up to it.

I'll agree this was one of my toughest battles too.. Wasn't really hard or anything, but just cheap and shitty. Then I figured I'mma swich to dumbbitch and well pwned it's ass. 0__0 FML.
Another would prolly been when facing Maneaters for first time... And then again on NG+ for Demon's Souls. Can't remember really how that went. Then I'll go with Orstein on Dark souls powered up o0n NG+ as well.

Least my latest most memerable ones. OH and agree with guy you said Sephiroth from Kingdom Hearts...

now reemmeber facing down all the weapons in FF7....
*jumps to death in Nexus*

Ruby is piss weak compared to Emerald.. At level 99 with maxed level materia he was able to wipe my party with one attack. I haven't faced a boss in any game 'til this day that took that much preparing.

Someone said Penance from FFX... If it can be 1 shot with Yojimbo I don't really think that's a challenge :S
My cousin brought over his memory card a couple of years ago and introduced me to Penance, saying its the toughest boss ever (looking at his 300hr save file and maxed out characters). He honestly couldn't do more than 1,000,000hp worth of damage. I paid Yojimbo 5,555,555 gil. Penance was downed immediately.

When prepared right for Emerald, he's easier as you have all 3 characters to take him out which makes the battle go faster. If you have final attack material mastered combined with phoenix then if he wipe's out your party which he does then you'll party will come back to life. Then having knights of the round mastered with X-summon will get you two in a row and then have the other characters use mime to do the same thing. Characters don't have to be at 99 to beat him. With Ruby it's only one character to beat him with which makes the battle longer so I say Ruby Weapon is harder.

Only boss I can think of I had trouble with, and this was a years ago by the way, was Psycho Mantis on Metal Gear Solid. Had no frikken idea how to damage him without him blocking/evading everything, it wasn't till the next day during school it came up in a conversation and some kid smugly explained how to do it, hell even roy campbell kinda makes a remark towards it in a codec conversation during the fight, just didn't take it seriously enough.

Eh, I'll add something else that just came to mind, don't think many people would have done this, yet alone played this game but anyone who has would know how infuriating it can get, doing divine might on FFXI back when it was the 75 cap, fighting tenzen for sea access and doing the ultima/omega fights on the airship just before that I think, and doing all the promyvion's, so basically the whole of chains of promithia and you're forced to do that with other people, couldn't solo that sheet.

I know everyone has their own opinions so I respect your answer BUT! ..Can you take out Emerald Weapon solo with Cloud? That's another why I think Emerald is way harder than Ruby. No chance beating Emerald solo. I had final attack with phoenix and quadra magic with Knights, that was the only way I could win

Also Mike Tyson on Mike Tyson's Punch Out for NES (without Game Genie naturally)

Pssh. Doom beat him without even trying. (Of course it was a glitch as my brother kicked the NES and I got the ending. Easiest game I ever beat.)

Doom runs a country, bitch! A nation of slaves! Dig you a grave! I'll make Umbrella look like Welfare, minimum wage! Doom is getting enraged! I come harder! Killed my ex-girlfriend and turned her into a suit of armor! Beat you to death with your legs, leave you in stitches, Marvel 2 is the shit, RE 5 is for bitches!

Why would you take out emerald weapon with one charcter when it can be done with 3 characters unless your trying prove to be hardcore but it doesn't matter as long as the job gets done. With Ruby your forced to be beat him with 1 character so that's why I say it's harder but to each their own.

Emerald weapon was easier than ruby, as said, it's 3 people to beat him whereas ruby is only one. That and his damage was based on how many materia you had equipped.. AND there was an armour that allowed most of his hits to miss anyway, though I can't remember which one it was, all I know is it was the one that you should have used against Ruby, can't remember which one though at the moment.. He was simple, just longwinded. Ruby was a bitch.

edit: pretty sure it was the gigas armlet? something like that...

Dragon Warrior VII had some pretty brutal bosses, I haven't played in a while so I don't remember the name but there was one on the second disc that prevented me from ever beating the game, I'll have to go back to it one day.

I think on PROTOTYPE where i had to beat the final boss on hard difficulty. It wasn't just hard but you had a timer. Maybe 4min. or so. I don't even remember. I died a few times but eventually i killed that bitch lol.

MGS2 - RAY battle, Extreme difficulty. 25 Metal Gear RAYs. All out for your blood, and extremely limited supplies. The only thing worse, is surviving and making it to Solidus' strangulation torture after with little health.

Devil May Cry 3 [Original] Cerberus - The only reason I list him? He's the first damn boss, and if you were playing the original US version of this game - you probably didn't advance much further without cranking down the difficulty unless you were pretty damn good at the series.
